WILL DEVELOP GYPSUM PROPERTIES
(12-31-1915)
F. H. Schulz, formerly manager of the United States Gypsum company, of Great Falls, arrived in
the city several days ago, and has taken the position of general superintendent of the Hanover
Gypsum company, in which several Lewistown capitalists are stockholders.
Mr. Schulz will take charge of the active work of developing the fields of the company, which
are located at the southern extremity of the South Moccasin Mountains, about 10 miles west of
Lewistown.
Mr. Schulz is also one of the stockholders of the company and he is confident that development
of the property will reveal the fact that it is one of the best fields in the northwest.
"There is a whole lot of gypsum in Montana/' said Mr. Schulz, "but a great many of the deposits
are interlarded with veins of clay. Many others that are really very good are so far removed
from transportation facilities that they are practically of no value at this time. The property of
the Hanover Company reveals a deep vein of gypsum and it is free of clay and rock strata. It is
also located within a few hundred yards of two of the largest railroads, which traverse
Montana, viz., the Milwaukee and Great Northern lines.
The general manager of the company will arrive in Lewistown in a very short time and
immediately thereafter active development work will be started.
